The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) extended the temporary moratoria on the enrollment of new Medicare Part B ground ambulance suppliers in Florida, Illinois, Michigan, Texas, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. This is a 6 month extension.

CMS stated that it extended the moratoria based on a high risk of fraud, waste, or abuse in these provider and supplier types within those geographic locations.
